Report:

Fishing on the St. Joe has been excellent lately, with conditions feeling much more like June than late May. If you haven’t made it out yet, now is a great time. Flows are in fantastic shape for this time of year and bug activity has really picked up.

Chubbies and stoneflies with a dropper is a great prospecting technique. In the afternoons, you might see Drakes, Yellow Sallies, March Browns, Caddis, and PMD's so make sure you have a mix of patterns in your fly box ready to go.

Have a great holiday weekend and tight lines!
